Off the top of my head, I dream three things for youth ministry:
1. Students who are growing in depth and insight of God’s Word.
2. Students who genuinely worship God both publicly and privately.
3. Students who have a burden for lost souls around them.
I look at that list and think, “Hmmm, do I even measure up to that list personally?”
[...] may look 10 different ways for 10 for different ministries, but, as I posted last year, I pray it characterizes my ministry in at least three [...]
About me: I am married to my beautiful wife, Dana, and together we live in Minnesota where I serve as the youth pastor at our local church. The opinions expressed here are my own and do not necessarily reflect those of my church. More about me...

Good point. Sometimes I don’t even meet those goals! I find it interesting to hear how youth pastors lay out their goals for their students. It gives a little insight into their heart.

Yeah Ben, you’re right. I hadn’t even thought of it that way before. Those things really are the desire of my heart both for my ministry and my own life.
